Why Are Posts Being Closed and How Should Members Respond to Admin Decisions?
Ok, let me say this once and only once. The admin team will close posts when THEY deem it time, not when YOU think it is. I am sick of the whinging posters and people abusing the admin team via private messaging. Standby to say goodbye if you deserve it.
Answer summary
A heated discussion ensues about the admin team's authority to close posts on the social media platform. Several users voice their agreement with the admin's decisions while others express frustration over the perceived bluntness of the communication and the lack of opportunity for members to express opinions. The conversation touches on the importance of focusing on factual information regarding Thai immigration and visa issues, emphasizing the need for clarity and respect within the community.

There are so much guidelines the members can give to make your visa journey smoother. End of the day it is the person approving your visa having the final say. One wrong word or action and home you go.

Well said. Am admin myself in another group. The crap i get through the pm system is highly annoying so i completely empathize with you.
Benjamin ******
I like how focus this group is. This is a "just the facts" group, and not any mindless chit chat or guessing. I also like how the threads get shut down as soon as the right answer is given.

And it keeps the trolls out. Good work, Admins!

i totally agreed. why need to have so much bullshit. when answer are found. just closed it. and move on. every info are real up to date and latest. whats there to complain. and more comments will make the person. asking for info more lost. just a penny of thoughts.

The administrators can be blunt and probably sound rude to some......But most people come here for advice to deal with a potentially stressful and tricky situation....So the only important thing I want to hear is either....A) how to deal with my issue LEGALLY....or B) it's impossible and I have to leave the country......The rest doesn't bother me in the slightest....If it did then I'd pay for an agency who'd get me the answer/solution I wanted......The other issue is that many (including myself) don't always give a clear context or full information about their situation which makes it difficult/impossible to find the right solution.....

why can't people appreciate the advice given which to my knowledge the admin is doing for free. tod daniels especially is a f***ing diamond, most of the advice he gives for free, try going to Thai lawyers or advisers for thai immigration matters the haters will soon shut up then. this is a fantastic group to have the honor of being part of. any haters should be banned in my opinion and made to go pay for the advice. good on you guys (the Admin).

Ok. That's enough. Close the comments now 🤣
Rob ******
When there is a constant and steady flow of the same criticism, it might be time to look internally rather than blame the complainers.
Robin ******
Rob Huff goodbye then, too many people want their egos massaged, for which this group is not intended.
Lloyd ********
OP@Rob *****
How about you go and look externally for answers. Goodbye. I will keep banning people until they realise WE run the group, not then.Wayne **********
Admin have their opinion...But they also own the platform you wanna advertise your own. Not surprising. Just is what it is..
Andy **********
Seems a fine idea to me.
